POWERING YOUR ELECTRONICS OFF OF BATTERIES YOU ALREADY HAVE - NO MATTER THE VOLTAGE
I had these radios when I was a kid and the range was shit. You could literally yell about as far as they would transmit. When I saw the movie and the distance they were talking I was like YEAH RIGHT!
Good benchmark/ Maybe it would be more accurate is the UV-5R and the FT-4X had shared the same antenna, which is SMA female. I'm happy with my FT4-XE, looking towards a second set like FT- 65 while returning my Blaspheming UV-5R to partly fund it. At the end of the day, the best device in this upload was the camera! 🎥 Really good.
Thank you for the review. Watching from Marudi Sarawak
good
🎉 brilliant work🎉 73
That does nothing except make the radio run hotter. It takes 4 times the power to get 6 db of gain, 1 S unit.
How does it work with a bluetooth headset? Would it work with a motorbike bluetooth, for example?
it is good if they put type C charging on battery or on the radio. so you can charge it on powerbank. Baofeng has a type C charging on upgrade battery. I wish yaesu will upgrade and put type C on their battery or radio.
Just pop it on wide band and not wreck your mic
Yepp, had a pair of 70MW four transistor walkies in the sixties, and it was uber-fun Thank you :)
Its a beast! fun for only 30 bucks..
Maravillosa colección vintage! Tuve el segundo (Trans Talk) en 1978 y fue mi primer CB! Saludos desde Argentina! Muy buen aporte!
Grate video. That brought back memories my first CB was a Midland 3001 am in the late 70 🙂
Great video, thanks.
Brighter than the original😊
CB is more fun than meshtastic, love CB
Do you know if the 2S has a function to lock keys? I use the radio in my vest and several times I hit the buttons.

Quanheng plus, It's strong 💯 more than 10W on VHS, (full battery) but oryginal antenna weak. Range 30 km ok, on 669c baofeng antenna. I check 😀
One thing annoying to this radio is the squelch tail elimination (STE) when using a duplex frequency with the ctcss setting. But overall i love it
Channel getting boring, need to do some more servicing videos.
Teletubbies, it's not just one teletubbie
You are correct, you are doing this for fun! I am enjoying your solar mesh journey, for I am on the same path...... or Mesh!
the ground loop isolation was the solution i was looking for in another application.
What reng
it was destroyed because it was private property and a bunch of people were just showing up walking in like nothing so it was flooded back in the day on purpose
Really 😂
AT-778UV mic gain Hello 6:03 Like some others, working with the same set, i also get reports of low audio levels. I know there is no Mic Gain option, but does anyone know if AnyTone will (or has) update(d) the firmware ?? I saw that Retevis have released new firmware for their RT-95 which INCLUDES a Mic Gain as a menu option. Is anyone here knowledgable enough to know if the Retevis firmware can be used for AnyTone? Looking forward to replies ... 73
When a programmer says, he hopes and never see’s the back of that hand mic you know or at least I know I’m not going to tackle that very smoothly. I’m only 1 year into my CB life with a mobile galaxy 33 in the truck on a Wilson 1000 and a cobra NW (mobile basestation) on a foot warmer in the living room running off a (again rookie) patriot fiberglass 2 piece for very cheap and put that on top of my old windmill tower it’s like 50’ up there with fresh RG213 coax 150’ . It works great and I’ve met multiple locals that have helped me out with radios power supplies meters and most importantly the knowledge of playing radio. It’s been fun but recently have been looking into better ears and will definitely be going back up that tower 1 more time , I don’t necessarily want BEAMS that I can rotate it’s really windy and gusty so must find a good wind resistance one that’s simple . Maco maybe? IDK but what I do know is I made a hobby with this radio stuff and it really creates positivity and friendship and to learn something new. The biggest thing I’ve learned is it doesn’t take much to play but to be good at it requires some practical skills that anyone can learn with simply keying down and talking. Always be kind and respectful and the possibilities are unlimited. I enjoy your content and aspire to acquire the programming skills so I can do it all, the radio is not dead in central ohio 7 3s 👋FARGO386
Hey mate, I just bought this radio. How can I mod it to use frequencies from let's say 1xx MHz?
Anybody copied it please? Drop me an email if so…thx. Petr
Did you finished this project?! I wanted to copy it and got V77 but never found any final vid with possibíity to get 3d files etc. 🤥
В игру American truck simulator я делаю мод рацию pace cb 166 из этого фильма. В будущем планирую поставить рацию со сканером на приборную панель как в фильме в машине Бандита. А также добавить другие модели раций которые удалось опознать по моментам в фильме.
I had a pair of those in the mid '80s, but the were branded "Danita Junior FM" here in Sweden. Had some fun with them but they absolutely did not reach the advertised range of one kilometer. The street where I grew up is 200 meters long and if I stood at one end of the street and my friend at the other, we could barely hear ech other.
We’re do you get them ftom
Hi when I first joined the met police radio branch used to repair w15 low and dash and boot mount versions . 73s mark G8rde
As part of the contract, the building was taken down after filming, but people still continued to visit the empty lot so the farmer turned it into a pond
hello !! I am Gerardo EA4DR, I am interested in replacing the batteries as you have done but I am not sure if they can be charged with the ST-2 desktop charger. Thank you very much.
There are two versions. The UV-25 and the UV-25 Pro Max. The second on has a scramble option in the menu and airband. Inside this bendable antenna is a very thin antenna like the Signal stick.
E buonissimo
At 4:52 tots tv
Brilliant
what is the SDR software you are using?
The silver makes it quite tacky.
I need to see one of those batteries open . One of my first baofeng's i dropped the mic so after that drop something was ratteling inside i opened it upp and low and behold they glued in a piece of rusty iron to give it weight lmfao .
If you bend that goosneck 90 degrees are you then Horizontal or verticalli polarized with your signal or does that just make it an omnidirectional an antenna lmfao this is getting confusing hahahahaha.
Annyone that can help me out with a chirp fille for this dualband UV8000 D repeater ? i am doing something wrong lmao it's getting frustrating i am trying to get it to work with two baofengs bF A58 .
Update. I've been using the radio quite often over the past year and its still working great. Thanks so much Paul for using your skill and ingenuity to bring the radio back to life. Dave
You mentioned nothing about the fire and battery explosion risks that are reported in the media which may be another argument to get bikes banned
